Reality (Not Advertising)

The story may or may not be true, and I don't really give a rip. It's still funny.

Carnation Company is looking for their advertising pitch and offers $5K (real money in those days) to the contest-winner. A woman in Oconomowoc responds.

She is awarded $2K because this WAS realisitic and conveyed the right idea--but not exactly the way Carnation wanted to be remembered.
